A Revelation called Beyonce...


She is 37 years old, a wife loyal to the fault, mother of 3 but she still manages to take away breaths of millions with her voice and her suave. The biggest Fashion icon there is, her stage presence is a lesson in textbooks for artists to come for the next century or so. But why do some people hate her??

Wikipedia says- 

Throughout her solo career, Beyoncé has sold over 100 million records worldwide, making her one of the world's best-selling music artists. She has won 22 Grammy Awards and is the most nominated woman in the award's history. She is also the most awarded artist at the MTV Video Music Awards, with 24 wins, including the Video Vanguard Award.The Recording Industry Association of America recognized Beyoncé as the Top Certified Artist in America, during the 2000s decade. In 2009, Billboard named her the Top Radio Songs Artist of the Decade, the Top Female Artist of the 2000s decade, and awarded her their Millennium Award in 2011. In 2014, she became the highest-paid black musician in history and was listed among Time's 100 most influential people in the world for a second year in a row. Forbes ranked her as the most powerful female in entertainment on their 2015 and 2017 lists, and in 2016 she occupied the sixth place for Time's Person of the Year.

A simple Google search gave me 3 answers from 3 different kind of people-
Read them all before you proceed.


The first screenshot represents the views of a person who obviously does not agrees with her. To Ticherie Ma I say this-

1. Aweful music donot sell 100s of millions of copies, her music defines my life now, that's how deeply has she inspired me.
2. Narcissistic??? what would you call your President Trump...…...?? She is fiercest musician there is, the spotlight comes to her itself and not the other way around. If She was running after fame, her life would be an open book like Kim Kardashian's. 
3. She is bold and a true feminist who speaks her mind out with no fear and no regrets, an inspiration to all women worldwide. And it cant be helped that she is one of the sexiest women alive, Finesse through and through. Do you also hate Adam Levine for being shirtless in his music videos?? (ahem!! Hypocrisy!! Ahem!!)
4. "24 wins of MTV VMA including Michael Jackson video Vanguard Award" That says it all.
5. Illuminati!!! Really.....??
6. Stolen music donot win 22 Grammys!!!
7. How do you know that for sure?? On the other hand why do you think Adele, Kanye West and Madonna don't have a team of writers???
All said, everyone is entitled to their opinion. You can hate and dismiss her achievements all you want while I choose to bask in her glory and be inspired to greatness.

The second screenshot is a more universally acceptable answer to that question. While being respectful of an Artist and their art, Shane Scott very well compares his love for heavy metal and his wife's love for pop music as an example of one's deep rooted, particular, taste of music. Everybody has different taste. Be it clothes, partners or music. It still doesn't explains why would anyone hate her!!!

The third screenshot presents a more radical approach to the question-

1. How difficult is it to maintain perfect balance of sinner and a saint. Her music touches lives of millions, throws light on Black History/Tragedy like no one else and celebrates being a female person like never before, all while in custom made Burberrys and Givenchy's that women all over the world would kill for. She is essentially a perfect combination of Rihanna and Adele. Soulful and Sultry- all packed in one. And not a lot of artists have achieved that. In fact I cant think of anyone right now.
2. She is worth half a Billion dollars. Together with Jay-Z, they are worth more than the painting of Mona Lisa at Louvre in Paris. She got married to the love of her life long time back and is still holding on to it- no matter how many Rihannas or Becky with the good hair pass by. She has 3 adorable children, parents who love her, a sister who would assault people in elevators for her (LOL! right!!) and in-laws who are mighty proud of her. She is the single biggest Black Female icon there is, next to Oprah Winfrey. She is a big philanthropist and she loves her fans equally.
3. Beyoncé is the single most polite, courteous, adorable and down to earth person in real life. So a lot of people cant digest how her on screen and on stage presence is so fierce that she eclipses any level of glamour, perfection and fame that one could possible think of. That's cuz she is one of those artists who work at a level so rare, a lot of people just cant grasp what she is talking about.
4. Whats the most unlikable thing I have heard about Beyoncé ?? I have read somewhere that she got the names of her twins copyrighted. And that har lawyers sued every website that hosted one her bad pics from her concert long time ago. Not a deal breaker for me!!!

I call her Beyoncé, no 'knowles' or 'Carter' for me. She is a self made goddess who doesn't need a man's name to follow hers. She is an icon that will be remembered and revered for centuries to come. And I pray that one day I have a daughter like her.

I will leave you with this quote of hers-
"I had a choice, 
To stand still or move forward.
To let things Happen or to make things happen.
Everyday I wake up I make a choice 
Not to let the world decide for me,
I decide for me.
I decide to get going."
